5 Tips for Kicking Off Your Online Dating Experience
- Be open to possibility and don’t worry about the details. Start with the big stuff: do you live in the same city, do you both like to read etc. etc..
- Just check out the facts, worry about personality traits when you meet. What type of career do they have? How old is he or she?
- Pay attention to the profile tone – does the person seem positive and excited for new things? Or do they seem sarcastic and down and out?
- Don’t get too nitpicky over photos – you never know…we’re not all photogenic and if you think there may be a connection, stop worrying about looks and focus on personality.
- Don’t get attached until you’ve met and actually dated. Wait for the real deal to let your feelings flow.
